Time to dig out Colmerauers/Russells original Prolog
implementation in FORTRAN from the 1970's?
> The first interpreter was written in Algol-W (1972),
with later interpreters written in FORTRAN (1973)! and
Pascal (1976). Though the Marseilles group and the
Edinburgh group collaborated until the mid-1970's,
they subequently went their own ways, leading to the
development of two families of Prolog dialects, each
with its own syntax. The Mareseilles dialect has
become largely extinct, though.

TIOBE Index for May 2024
I have received a lot of questions why Fortran entered the top 10
again after more than 20 years. The TIOBE index just publishes
what has been measured.

Why Fortran is back in TIOBE’s top 10
First, Fortran is especially good at numerical analysis and
computational mathematics. Numerical and mathematical
computing is growing because interest in artificial intelligence
is growing, Jansen told TechRepublic in an email.
